A LESSON WIFE "A MORAL.
When viii Oar Eyes be Opened to
this Great National Calamity

The year 1856 played sad havoc with
many prominent men Of our country.
Many Of them died without warning,
passing away apparently in the full flush
Of life
Others were sick bat Il comparatively
short time. We turn to oar files and are
astonished to find that most Of them died
Of apoplexy, Of paralysis, of nervous pros
tration, OF malignant blood humor Of
Brisht's disease. of heart disease, ofkidncy
disease, of rheumatism or of pneumonia.
1t is singular that most OF our prominent
men die Of these disorders Any journal
list who watches the telegraph reports will
be astonished at the number of prominent
victims Of these disorders.
Many statements have appeared in our
paper with others to the effect that the dis
eases that carried off 50 many prominent
men in 1886 are really one disease, taking
different names according TO the location
of the fatal effects.
When valuable horse pcrshes, it be
comes The nine days talk of the sporting
world and yet thousands of ordinary
horses are dying every day, their aggre-
gate loss is enormous and yet their death
creates no comment.
SO it is with individuals. The cause of
death OF prominent men creates comment,
especially when it can be shown that one
unsupported disease carries off most of
them, and yet vast numbers of ordinary
men and women die before their time ev-
cry year from the same cause.
1t is said if the blood is kept free from
uric acid, that heart disease, paralysis,
nervous prostration, pneumonia rheuma-
tism. and many cases of consumption.
would never be known. This uric acid,

il is the duty Of the kidneys to remove this
waste.
We are told that if tie kidneys are main
tanned in perfect health, the uric, kid
ney, acid is kept out of the blood, and
these sudden and universal diseases caused
by uric acid will, IN a large measure. dis
appear.
But how shall this be done? 1t is folly
to treat effects. If there is anv known
way of getting at the cause, that way
should be known to the public. We be-

much has been written. aud so much
talked of by the public generally, and
which can be obtained of dealers every
| where, is now recognized by impartial
| physicians and the public as the one
| specific for such diseases.
Because public attention has been directed
! tG this great remedy by means OF adNertls-
| ing, some persons have not believed III the
remedy. We cannot see how Mr. Warner
could Immediately benefit the public in any
other way, ana his val liable specific
should not be condemned because some
nostrums have come before the public in
| the same way, and more than that all
doctors should be condemned because so
many Of them are incompetent.
1t is astonishing what good opinions you
hear on every side of that great remedy,
and public opinion thus based upon an actual
experience, has all the weight and i'm
| portance of absolute truth.
At this time Of the year the uric acid in
| the blood invites pneumonia and rheuma-
tism and there is not man who does not
dread these monsters of disease: but he
need have no fear Of them, we are told. if
he rid the blood of the uric acid cause
These words are strong, and may sound
| like an advertisement, and be rejected as
such by urthinking people, but we believe
they are the truth, and as such should be
spoken by every truth-loving newspaper.
